"Oooh! My new phone is already ringing! I can do that thing I saw on the internet!" is some seriously bad expositionary dialogue that really takes away from the pretty good joke after it.

No, that's just the way she talks. She's a Russian girl who was trained as an assassin and has little exposure to the outside world and she is unrelentingly positive and cheery about everything. Her dialogue and the way she talks about things is a part of what makes the comic work.

Though it's the 'too cool for school' duckface as she answer the phone that sells that particular gag.

Apparently Pacino had read the line normally during several takes and then on the one they used for the movie he does it like that, and Azaria's reaction was genuine fear and confusion and not acting.

Pacino also played the character as a cocaine addict and they shot a bunch of scenes of him doing drugs, but Mann ended up leaving them all on the floor because the film was too long. It explains why the guy is so loving manic.

An event that features Earth's Mightiest Drinkers as the main heroes would be a pretty good intersection of various teams. You've got an X-Man (Wolverine), a Fantastic Four member (Thing), an Asgardian (do I have to say?), an Olympian (ditto), and... anyone else? Any beer aficionados from the Inhumans, or cosmic crowd, or magic clique? Any women characters who appreciate kicking back with a cold one? Captain Marvel maybe, or She-Hulk?

I'd totally forgotten about that. I seem to recall it was a pretty good issue though. I thought the Fraction run handled the alcoholism issue pretty well.

Also I would read about an annual booze-off between Wolverine, Thor, Thing, and Hercules, except I'm pretty sure Herc is sober now, and Wolverine and Thor are different people who seem less inclined to drink to excess even though they totally could, so the whole issue is Thing getting progressively more sloshed and disorderly.

e: gently caress, forgot this was Funny Panels and I'm at work. Someone hit me with Jetpack Sabretooth or something. Or last night I read the latest Dr Strange, Thor makes a good crack about brain surgery and hitting people with a hammer, anyone got that?
